The gonads produce 'female' and 'male' hormones that play an important role in the development of the female or male body, especially before birth and during puberty, but also later in life.

異常時   Atypical:
“女性”和“男性”激素過多或過少,在身體的發育過程和功能發揮中具有決定性的影響,而且這將導致異常的身體外貌。

Too much or too little of 'male' and 'female' sex hormones can have a decisive influence on the development and functioning of the body, and it can lead to an atypical physical appearance.
